why eve & villanelle are soulmates: a thread

1/18 — soulmates feel an instant attraction to one another. when eve and villanelle meet for the first time their immediate attraction is almost palpable.

2/18 — from that moment we see eve is completely infatuated, whether she realizes it or not.

3/18 — villanelle is just as infatuated with the “woman with amazing hair.” in her own stalkerish assassin ways.

4/18 — a soulmate relationship has an intensity that can’t really be explained. eve and villanelle’s first encounter being aware of who each other is, proves that. it’s playful, it’s intense, it’s unattainable. that moment only really makes sense to the two of them.

5/18 — soulmates don’t have to be romantic but very often they are. eve and villanelle have a strong attraction that is felt when they are connecting with one another in what was, perhaps, their most honest exchange of words to this day.

6/18 — soulmates come together to help awaken and remind each other of who they really are. eve has realized so much about herself after villanelle has entered her life. in her own words, she feels “wide awake.”

7/18 — that is also true for villanelle. in this incredibly raw scene, she appears genuinely heartbroken. villanelle smiles through the pain as she realizes she is capable of feeling something so deeply, perhaps for the first time in her life.

8/18 — soulmates feel very strongly that they know or can understand each other already. eve believes she is able to understand oksana, she wants to know what happened in her past that may have shaped her.

9/18 — their coming together feels bigger than just the two. they feel as if they are working towards something greater. eve strongly believes that by getting to know and understand oksana, she will be able to stop her. even more so, she thinks she is the only one who can.

10/18 — in a romantic relationship, the strong build of energy may cause them to enter into an “on again-off again” cycle. eve and villanelle’s dynamic is something of a fine line between love and hate. the element of defiance is always present.

11/18 — a soulmate connection may allow them to learn new skills or talents that they didn’t know they had. eve continuously makes villanelle “feel things” she cannot yet comprehend.

12/18 — at the same time villanelle also inspires changes within eve’s psyche. we see eve is starting to discover that she has a darker side to herself. which brings her even closer to villanelle.

13/18 — as villanelle becomes more aware of her emotions, she consequently becomes more empathetic. in this scene we see a villanelle that is able to empathize with felix when he talks about heartbreak. she realizes she feels the same way.

14/18 — soulmates meet or exit each other’s lives in somewhat fated circumstances. eve and villanelle’s fate is no different.

15/18 — this kind of encounter can often bring many life changes. upon meeting villanelle, she managed to turn eve’s life around in a dramatic way.

16/18 — old pains and fears are stirred through meeting this connection. things from their past come up in order to be released. after eve, villanelle has become more aware of her emotions. she wants to explore her past and is now set on finding and reconnecting with her family.

17/18 — soulmates tend to feel very in-sync with each other, almost like they know what the other person is feeling. when niko is killed, villanelle feels a sense of discomfort as if knows eve is going through rough times at that very moment. they’re connected now more than ever.

18/18 — but the ultimate way to tell is by trusting their own intuitive feelings.
on a deeper level, they will know when a soulmate has come into their lives by listening to the wisdom of their heart. villanelle is certain they are the same and for that they belong together. x
